» Articles List Project Runway Season 1 Winner: Jay McCarroll. With summary and pictures from project runway show
I'm a big fan of Project Runway! Jay McCarroll was the winner of Project Runway Season 1, and he was by far the most inventive designer with his own point of view, something the Judges always look for in contestants on Project Runway show. Below you'll find summary of season one of Project Runway, pictures from the show of the contestants, the models and the designs. Project Runway originally showed season 1 in 2004/2005. See all of Jay's designs in Project Runway Challanges.
Who were the judges of Project Runway Season 1? First of course, supermodel Heidi Klum, who is also the host of the show. Tim Gunn, while he's a mentor to contestants, is not one of the judges. Michael Kors is one of the judges, he's a well-known designer. Nina Garcia is also one of the judges, she's works for ELLE magazine. The judge's panel usually includes a 4th judge, specific for each challenge on Project Runway.

Project Runway Season 1 Winner: Jay McCarroll

Who won Project Runway Season 1?
Jay was the ultimate winner. |
Jay McCarroll won Season 1 of Project Runway, but the other 2 designers in Top 3 are worth a mention. First is Kara Saun, a favorite to win the first season of Project Runway and a great, experienced designer. Kara was leading the competition, but in the final showdown at New York's Olympus Fashion Week, Kara was outdone by Jay and his unique runway show. While Kara's designs were amazing, having to do with a theme revolving around the movie 'Aviator', they were judged to be inferior to Jay's innovative point of view. The second designer in Top 3: Wendy Pepper, was really hated by most contestants and her final collection, having to do with Autumn and falling leaves, was judged the worst of the final 3.
